Sometimes php5 process stress cpu
Sometimes in some oscommerce websites the php5 process takes the 90% CPU indefinitely.

When i watch the processes with ps aux or htop i can only see the /usr/bin/php5 but not the .php file that cause this overload.

How can i see wich scripts are doing this?

RE: Sometimes php5 process stress cpu
i host around 15 blog sites... all using wordpress

What i notice is that every once in a while (lets say couple of days) the server get under very high cpu load... average CPU 70~80%

with "top" i can see a lot of php5-cgi processes and some of them shows [defunct]. I am kind of new to linux and so far the only way to fix this is to write killall php5-cgi which is helping for a while but then its happening again.

Can somebody tell me how can see which php file exactly is causing this high load, so i can dig into that issue... i mean some freak "ps dsuaby | grep -dkjsahu" command maybe.

System infomation
Pentium 4 3GHz
1GB ram
100 MBps uplink

Debian 4.0
ispCP 1.0.0 RC4 OMEGA
build: 20080308
Priamos

Thank you

RE: Sometimes php5 process stress cpu
Hi!

bulforce try with "lsof | grep PID" where PID is the process id of php5 process you want to track

RE: Sometimes php5 process stress cpu
This is a well documented issue with php5. I think it should be fixed in php5.2.6 so update/upgrade your packages.

Search the forum for similar topics as this has been discussed with solutions being proposed.

RE: Sometimes php5 process stress cpu
which php5 version are you using ?
Just because there were some issues with some php versions not killing their child processes when they ought to ...

Also : Do you use any kind of php accelerator like Ea , xcache, apc, ZendOptimizer ?
